24;;; Commentary;:
25
26;; This code helps GNU Emacs maintainers keep the loaddefs.el file up to
27;; date.  It interprets magic cookies of the form ";;;###autoload" in
28;; lisp source files in various useful ways.  To learn more, read the
29;; source; if you're going to use this, you'd better be able to.
30
31;;; Code:
32
33(defun make-autoload (form file)
34  "Turn FORM, a defun or defmacro, into an autoload for source file FILE.
35Returns nil if FORM is not a defun or defmacro."
36  (let ((car (car-safe form)))
37    (if (memq car '(defun defmacro))
38	(let ((macrop (eq car 'defmacro))
39	      name doc)
40	  (setq form (cdr form))
41	  (setq name (car form))
42	  ;; Ignore the arguments.
43	  (setq form (cdr (cdr form)))
44	  (setq doc (car form))
45	  (if (stringp doc)
46	      (setq form (cdr form))
47	    (setq doc nil))
48	  (list 'autoload (list 'quote name) file doc
49		(eq (car-safe (car form)) 'interactive)
50		(if macrop (list 'quote 'macro) nil)))
51      nil)))
52
53(defconst generate-autoload-cookie ";;;###autoload"
54  "Magic comment indicating the following form should be autoloaded.

61\(defun function-to-be-autoloaded () ...)
62
63If this string appears alone on a line, the following form will be
64read and an autoload made for it.  If there is further text on the line,
65that text will be copied verbatim to `generated-autoload-file'.")

74;;; Forms which have doc-strings which should be printed specially.
75;;; A doc-string-elt property of ELT says that (nth ELT FORM) is
76;;; the doc-string in FORM.
77;;;
78;;; There used to be the following note here:
79;;; ;;; Note: defconst and defvar should NOT be marked in this way.
80;;; ;;; We don't want to produce defconsts and defvars that
81;;; ;;; make-docfile can grok, because then it would grok them twice,
82;;; ;;; once in foo.el (where they are given with ;;;###autoload) and
83;;; ;;; once in loaddefs.el.
84;;;
85;;; Counter-note: Yes, they should be marked in this way.
86;;; make-docfile only processes those files that are loaded into the
87;;; dumped Emacs, and those files should never have anything
88;;; autoloaded here.  The above-feared problem only occurs with files
89;;; which have autoloaded entries *and* are processed by make-docfile;
90;;; there should be no such files.
